Montana Soil Is Unsurpassed, Absorbs And Molds Moisture The soil of Montana varies with the different districts, but generally it is an alluvial deposit, a gray loan with extreme fertility, from two to forty feet in depth, says Bonds and Mort- gages, an eastern publication. In some parts the soil is -a sandy loam with clay subsoil. In other parts it is a dark loam with gravelly subsoil. No question has ever been raised re- garding the fertility of Montana soils. The richness of these soils Is, in fact, difficult of belief, but it is explained, by Prof. Atkinson, of the Montana - state agricultural college, as follows: - \The Montana soils, not having been subjected to the , leaching of heavy rains through the. years and not having been reduced by having forests removed, are rich in all ele- ments of plant food. Nitrogen, phosphorus and potash, these ele- ments the lack of which prevent crqp raising in other sectioas, are present in abundance in Montana soils.\._ Another important property of Montana soil is that it Is of a proper - consistency for a country of light rainfall. It. works and pulverizes readily, making the task easy of keep- ing a dust mulch on top for Conserva- tion of moisture. The soil is heavy enough so that this dust blanket does not blow awa3. Besides these advan- tages, it is a soil that readily absort,s and holds mo1sture.7 Mr. F. Walden, the agricultutal ex- pert, in speaking of western soil also says: The fact is, the light colored soils are immensely rich. This has been shown by the government experts who have analyzed them. People who have lived in a county where the soil is black come to associate blackness and richness as inseparably joined together but this is not the case. It is the presence of humus that makes the soil black, but this blackness remains after the fertility has largely been washed away by cop- ious rains. The enormous growth of plants in the light colored soils has been the matter of wonder to persons who have lived where the soils are black and they — have been compelled to revise their ideas. Opening a New Coal Mine A. Carmichael was in town Saturday from his coal 'property west of the mountains. Mr. Carmichael has had a force of men employed all. the winter developing his coal mine, and now has it in shape to turn our. quite a large tonsure daily. Considerable of this Coal has been brought to Kendall recently and those who have used it speak very highly; of the quality. As this Is a home industry we Certainly be very glad to see Mr. Car- michael (10 well with his mine ,and we wish him unbounded atICOless.

A summary of the relative position of the states and territories in the production of precious and allied met- als during 1909 appearing in the Colo- rado Mining Record is of interest. It shows that three states take the lead in the production of gold, silver, copper, lead and zinc. Colorado is first In gold. Montana is first in silver and copper and Missouri is first in lead and zinc. The five largest producers of each of the five metals are in the following order: Gold—Colorado, California, Alaska, Nevada and South Dakota. Silver—Montana, Utah, Colorado, Nevada and Idaho. Copperoolliontana, Arizona, Michi- gan, Utah and Mevada. Lead—Missothi, Idaho, Utah, Col- orado and Wisconsin. Zine,—Missourl, Colorado, Wiscon- sin, New Jersey and Kansas. In this list 'appear 14 states or territories that are to be credited with the bulk of produCtion of the five metals. Colorado appearing four duets as one of the leading producers the metal in which it does not figure to' any large extent being copper. Two other states Nevada and Utah, appear three times the metals in which Utah tloes not take a leading rank being gold and zinc, while Ne- vada falls to the rear in lead and zinc Utah however comes sixth in the production of gold, Montana. appears taking the lead In copper and silver. Montana Is seventh in the production of gold. The greatest diversity of metallic products in a prominent way is that shown by Colorado and Utah. In the value of all the products mentioned The leading contributions are made by ',Arizona, California, Colorado,' Migithran, Missouri, MOntane, Neva- da4In4 Utah, six out of the eight states being Rocky mountain' states. The total of the value of the five metals from the eight states Is about 8275,00,000. It is in the combination of products that one sees the beauty of•the new wealth that these stater contribute to the world. The Trans- vall leads in gold, at the value of that gold is not much more than one half the value of the metals here considered. The United States still leads the world in the production of silver, copper, lead and zinn.—Tri- bene.
